Summer Serenity

I visited the Fu-rin Festival over at Pluto+ yesterday, mostly because I had no idea what a fu-rin was. It’s a very small event, but there are more than fu-rin offered so it’s worth a trip. So, as soon as I got there and heard them I realized I’d heard fu-rin all over SL and just had no idea what was making the noise before. I liked these japanese wind bells so much I bought one. They’re a lot less noisy than the windchimes I’m used to here in America, but create a more serene mood for it in my opinion anyway.

This isn’t your typical fu-rin, most of them resemble upturned glass fishbowls from what I’ve seen, but I think it fits my house and me perfectly. This is the Daisy Fu-rin from Sway’s, available at the festival and mainstore. The top is scripted to chime every 10 seconds, 30 seconds, or randomly while the bottom rotates the leaf as if a breeze were blowing it around (rotation can be turned on or off).
